Proving that automotive journalism and film criticism have more in common than we'd already suspected--both professions are built around reviews, after all--famed film reviewer Roger Ebert has blogged about his newest purchase: A 2010 Ford Fusion Hybrid.

Yes, the man of Siskel and Ebert fame is happy with his choice in family sedans, and he has decided to let the world know. Ebert says he bought the car because Ford didn't take federal bailout money and because car magazines like the car (good to know auto journos still have some influence in the age of social-media marketing).

So one more accolade has been heaped on the 2010 Ford Fusion. In other news, the sun rises in the east. We've raved about the Fusion Hybrid, and it won Motor Trend's Car Of The Year. So what's one more bit of praise, even if it does come from a famous journalist who normally writes about car chases in action movies? Chalk another one up for Ford.
